Federal Government should not be allowed to tell cities how to spend their money, but something needs to be done what devinhelton said. Look up Atlanta about their stadium deals for the Falcons and Braves. The City Council basically ignored the citizens completely and went ahead to spend millions to replace 2 stadiums that really wasn't that old to begin with.
- Touche 9y agoDid the city council get re-elected when they went against citizens?
- DrSayre 9y agoIm not sure. I remember reading an article about it awhile back and wondered if they would get re-elected, though I cannot find that article at the moment. I believe it was to approve additional funds for the Braves new stadium. If I remember right, they kept anybody who was against the deal from speaking about it at the meeting. There was a big scene and they went ahead and voted for the additional funding.
